Christmas Dream Come True!!!

I have had the same table and chair set for years.

Well, actually the table is new to my home, about a year now. I've recovered the fabric on the chairs 2 times now.
Here's the most recent change:

The boys had the orange fabric stained and ruined in no time! I love this new stripe fabric! We've been in this house for 5 years now and from the first moment I saw the kitchen I wanted a banquette for the corner. You know...a bench that's shaped like an L? I have been coveting them for years and my parents knew it. They really surprised me this year with this...

Mom said the look on my face was priceless as the boys unwrapped it for me. It was one of those chin hits the floor moments. I'm so grateful! It looks really beautiful doesn't it? It took them about 3 hours to put together and it's SOOOO worth it! It even has storage in the benches!!! I have one filled up with playdough and the other is painting stuff. The boys are really enjoying it too! Now I can seat 6 people instead of 4! YAY!!!


So tell me, what did you get this year that you weren't expecting?

Ooh! That's pretty! Hi, by the way, I just stumbled across your blog. That's a great gift! And you can't even stain it.

My kids were incredibly thoughtful this year. They got my husband and I a shiatsu massage pillow. Because I'm very pregnant and my back hurts all the time and he's got arthritis in his neck. I was impressed that they were so good at gifting!
